In tribute to the Titans’ divine attention to detail (however unlikely it may be), VF.com reviews the carefully layered looks ahead.

For a walk with his brother Hades, Zeus (Liam Neeson) chooses a flowing white robe, metallic wrist cuffs, an earth-toned vest, and footwear sturdy enough for the fiery terrain. Hades (Ralph Fiennes), never one to compromise stylishness for comfort, chooses what appears to be a leather, shoulder-padded cape that doesn’t breathe well. He pairs this with an ornately detailed breastplate, a kilt, and knee-high gladiator boots. It looks as though Hades achieved this runway-worthy look after at minimum two hours trying on various iterations while Zeus, annoyed that they were running late, offered unhelpful commentary like “Sure, that looks great” or “Yeah, perfect. Whatever.”
